comments.rs

//! Reading what other people said on a pull request or an issue, and answering
//! it.
//!
//! This is the only GraphQL in spar, and it is one read and one mutation.
//! Everything else here is REST, which keeps the surface that can fail on an
//! old `gh` or a locked down Enterprise token down to two calls.
//!
//! GraphQL is not a preference. REST has always served a pull request's inline
//! comments and has never served whether the thread they sit in is resolved,
//! and resolved is the whole point: it is the one signal that is authoritative,
//! shared between machines, and free.
